<p>Thry some overstable mids on a thumber line and see what they do. You might be surprised at some of the approach angles that you can hit. I love the slow wide turn of a Lat Pain on 200' foot thumber, slides in nice and slow from the side on lower overhanging trees.</p>

<p>all depends on wind really. i use a flex avenger ss for a long tailwind or a 150 champion valk. i use a 164 champion banshee for headwind and short thumbers also use a 171 flex surge for the same shot. i have used a 171 predator for a headwind with success as well. </p>

<p>I have been working on my Thumber shot like Crazy. The more Overstable the disc, the Bigger the roll it will do. It will roll out really wide, BUT will give you the greatest distance with a thumber shot. Less stable, the Tighter the roll, with less distance. </p>
<p>I have used the Flick, Predator, XXX, and a Blitz for my Distance thumbers. I got my best distance out of the XXX, belive it or not, with my longest being around 280ft.</p>

<p>For UNDER 250ft, and tighter fairway shots, I am using a Brand new 175gm Champion Beast (Still rolls a little wider) and a 176gm Skyquest Medusa. The Medusa makes TIGHT ROLLS in the woods, and because it is such a soft, gummy plastic, NEVER rolls off.

<p>I pretty much concur with this answer with one addition. 150 class S-PD. It is perfect for tight, straight finishing 250-275 footers. There are two holes in my area that I thumb and I use it on both with more consistency than my flick gave me.</p>

<p>I use a Z Tracker, or a FLX XL for my thumber shots. I've heard the slower the disc the farther it will travel before it turns over.</p>
